Pauline Dispensationalism

“Traditional Dispensationalism has been brought to confusion by Covenant Theology mainly because they have root similarity. Hence, unless she moves onto Paul’s vertical plane, there is little or no hope for her survival.Author: Miles J. Stanford

The Faith of God’s Elect

A unique book expounding the scriptural truth of election without falling into the traps of either Calvinism or Arminianism. Original Author: John F. Parkinson

The authors attempt is to restore the "dispensational safety net" to Bible believing Churches and members of the "Body of Christ" that have become confused by false or deceived teachers and the growing numbers of anti-dispensationalists that have come in among the true brethren unawares, ignorant of the Believer's present heavenly position in the risen, ascended, and glorified Lord Jesus Christ. These teachers by not having rightly divided the Word of Truth have come in to many Evangelical Churches teaching the principles of the gospel of the Kingdom and not the gospel of the Grace of God as delivered to the Apostle Paul which are the directed teachings for the Church in this age of Grace. (1 Cor. 15: 3-5).Author: Ken Schmidt

JD: Looks like Israel may have to go to an all out war with Iran and Syria if they’re going to be able to stop Iran. Now this is getting pretty serious.

KT: Well this is the scenario that we’ve been looking at for some time Jimmy where the Iranians are pushing their pawns in Lebanon, in Syria. Most recently this past week Prime Minister Netanyahu warned Iran to evacuate from Syria, it’s forces from Syria or face extended Israeli retaliation, extended Israeli strikes. The Iranians scoffed at that and said they were in Syria to stay. But this is clearly the battle line that is being drawn right now. So far the Iranians have not struck back at Israel and that’s what people are now starting to wonder about whether the Iranians will use those forces they have based in Lebanon as well as Syria to strike back at Israel or Israel’s repeated air strikes on Iranian assets in Syria.

JD: Why is Iran so determined to stay there in Syria? They say that indeed they’re going to keep their military forces in Syria despite what Israel has to say.

KT: This is a strategic goal of the Iranian regime. Remember it is not an Iranian Republic; it is the Islamic Republic in Iran. I call it the Islamic state of Iran but it is an Islamic Republic meaning their goal is to expand the domain the realm of Islam. So for them to be stationed outside of Iran is a strategic goal. They are defending Islam. They see this as a priority to maintain that presence in Syria why? Because it gets them closer to Israel and eradicating Israel is a goal of this regime. They’ve been waiting for it for 40 years Jimmy and they’re just getting increasing military capabilities to be able to do this.

JD: Ken Timmerman with the details behind the announcement from Israel that the Jewish state is ready to go to an all out war to stop Iran in the Middle East.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

With the ever expanding presence of Iran in Syria at Israel’s northern border the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that the Israeli Defense Force is ready to go to an all out war to stop this Islamic power base from destroying the Jewish State, which is actually what Iran has said they are ready to do. That Iranian threat is right out of the prophetic scenario that can be found in the prophetic book of Ezekiel, to be exact that’s Ezekiel 38:5. In that verse Persia which is mentioned is modern day Iran. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

JD: Things that could harm our reputation and our testimony and I’m talking about, in general, the Christian community by compromising our integrity. David lets first discuss a few Biblical passages that actually deal with the issue of integrity.

DJ: Sure, well I think it might help to actually consider the word for integrity in both the Old and the New Testament in the Hebrew and in the Greek. Integrity in the Old Testament means the condition of being without blemish, completeness, perfection, sincerity, upright, and so on. And then in the New Testament in the Greek it means honesty and inherence to a pattern of good work. So, that leaves I think the foundation as far as the original languages in the Bible are concerned.

The book of Proverbs has a lot to say about integrity so I think it would be good to start there. Proverbs 11:6 says the righteousness of the upright will deliver them but the unfaithful will be caught by their lust. In Proverbs chapter 6 going back to the six things the Lord hates and seven, which are abomination, integrity is a major theme in those things the Lord hates; a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises evil plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, false witness, and someone that stirs up conflict against his brethren. So, integrity is a very important thing there.

Proverbs 28:6 says, better as the poor who walked in his integrity than he that is perverse in his ways though he be rich. And then moving to the New Testament as you think about someone who is to be an elder an overseer in a local church. In I Timothy chapter 3 says a Bishop must then be blameless that’s all about integrity. And then in I Peter chapter 3 the beginning of verse 15 he says but sanctify the Lord in your hearts and then moving down to verse 16 he says have a good conscience that when they defame you as evildoers those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.

So the point is this that integrity has to do not only with what you do but the appearance of what you do and we need to be blameless which means that not only are we acting with integrity but we’re acting in such a way that our integrity is clear to others.

JD: David James with a Biblical approach to true Biblical integrity.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

As you listen to Daves Biblical description of integrity you had to recognize the importance of integrity in the Christian lifestyle. Integrity is not only important for Christian leaders but for those who are in the pews as well. In fact, the apostle Paul said that in the last days men shall depart from Biblical integrity that’s II Timothy chapter 3.

Our world today is full of people that lack integrity both in the church and outside of the church. It’s a true sign of the end of times.

JR: It is really coming down to the wire now with Brexit. I think we only have like 40 something possible days that Parliament actually convenes. But why would this pass now? It was actually, the vote was pulled earlier because there was no chance of it passing. So there’s a tension here that the pro-Brexit camp is not willing to compromise because the vote was to leave the European Union. That’s what was done more than 2 years ago. So now we have the Brexit deal which is not necessarily leaving the European Union in that strict sense because of the Northern Ireland backstop whatever.

JD: This of course is all apart of how we see the European Union either becoming the infrastructure of the Revived Roman Empire which I believe is the case or coming totally apart. This Brexit vote is going to be key for the other members of the European Union as well will it not John? Many of them are thinking about withdrawing from the European Union as well. So this is a key component of their decision making process would it not be?

JR: Absolutely, the whole Brexit issue in terms of the European Union is the biggest event since the end of World War II. So we have a lot of factions that are at work. We have the Eurosceptic parties which are grown greatly in Europe these last years. And now with the Parliamentary elections coming up this year it’s the same thing Europe is ready to completely lose control.

JD: John with the details on the Brexit vote. And you know which ever way they voted actually sets the stage for the prophetic scenario that is found in God’s word.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Whether the United Kingdom pulls out of the European Union or not the ancient Jewish prophet Daniel was right on target. He was correct in his prophecy of a European Union that is at least the infrastructure for the Revived Roman Empire.

In both Daniel and Revelation, Revelation chapter 17, John and Daniel lay out a prophetic scenario of ten nations, kingdoms or kings that form the Revived Roman Empire. God’s prophetic word is absolute and will be fulfilled as written.

As you and I watch from the sidelines we know the end result, God’s prophetic word will come to pass as written. As we observe God’s prophetic scenario unfolding in our day we can see the urgency of the moment and start living in light of that prophetic truth.

JD Jr: In the Old Testament there are 35 different passages that elude to the borders of Israel that God promised to the Jewish people forever. They only have today about one-tenth of what’s been promised to them. You don’t see a decline in the population as a problem to the fulfillment of God’s plan do you?

WM: Jimmy, Jewish history has always been a series of up ands downs. But its always been forward and always been up. In our history has gone through horrific periods not only in the recent past century but earlier. It’s been tough remaining who we are as a people with our own religion, our culture, our language, our customs and our belief that we do and should belong back in the land of Israel for the future redemptive process in which eventually even we’ll see a rebuild Jerusalem and a Temple. I don’t think many of us believe that will happen in a day. I don’t even think Rome was built in a day. But Jerusalem is taking a little bit longer.

But it’s the attitudes that I think we’re preserving and we’re being helped by people from all cultures and religions who see that as part of the plan that is developing which is only going to benefit man kind. And we have to do that. We hope we can do that as peaceful and as non-aggressive and as moral and ethical as possible if our enemies allow us to. We will defend ourselves. Everybody should defend themselves when they’re attacked. So if within a year-a year and a half there’s a slight drop that is a dot on God’s universe which will be overcome by I think positive ethic of us and others to continue what we are doing.

JD: Winkie Medad a Jewish settler in Israel that has knowledge of God’s plan for the Jews in Judea and Samaria.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

God’s word the Bible lays out God’s plan for the Jewish people, a plan that is absolute and eternal. In Ezekiel 34 God says that he will bring the Jews back into the land of their forefathers. In Ezekiel 36 God again says he will give them a piece of real estate that will be better than the land of their Jewish forefathers. These are two chapters in Bible prophecy actually being fulfilled today in the Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria. That plan is not yet completely finished but God will finish his plan seemingly in the very near future.
